Working with Co-dependency Denial Patterns
Denial Patterns in Codependency: A Guide for Therapists
Many adults who grew up with parents struggling with addiction develop denial patterns as a survival mechanism. In this post, we explore how these patterns show up in clients, illustrated by Michael’s story-a man caught in the grip of denial shaped by his alcoholic parents. Understanding these behaviours is essential for therapists supporting healing and growth.
If you want practical tools to help your clients uncover and overcome codependent denial, check out my workbook, The Origins of Codependence. It offers clear strategies and exercises designed for therapists and clients alike.
